Everton are anxiously awaiting the outcome of their appeal, which is expected to be delivered this week.
However, the Toffees were also hit with a second charge in January and, along with Nottingham Forest, were referred to an independent commission which will consider the alleged offences.
If charges are found, Everton could face further point deductions which would increase the likelihood of relegation this season.

Goodison Park has been the home of Everton for 131 years, with the first match being played there in September 1892, in a 4-2 victory over Bolton.

Everton have previously said the stadium will contribute approximately £1.3 billion to the UK economy, create thousands of jobs and attract 1.4 million visitors to the city of Liverpool annually.
